Cheap flights from Dublin to Brussels

Booking several weeks ahead typically gives access to lower fares across all twelve months listed here, though timing varies by season. November tends to offer the most competitive pricing compared with summer months when demand rises. Weekday departures outside of school holidays and Christmas periods often provide better value than weekends or peak travel windows.

Budget carriers like Ryanair usually include only carry-on luggage in their base fare, with checked bags and seat selection available as add-ons. Full-service operators such as Aer Lingus and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines generally include a checked bag and meal service in standard tickets. Some connecting airlines including Scandinavian Airlines, Edelweiss Air, BA CityFlyer, TAP Portugal, Sun Express and Helvetic Airways route through their respective hubs rather than offering direct service.

Before you land at Brussels Airport plan how you will reach the city centre from this location outside the urban core. The airport connects to downtown by train, bus and taxi, with journey times varying based on traffic conditions and your final destination. Allow extra time if arriving during rush hour or when public transport schedules are reduced.
